absolutely love this thing, it is always my go to ship for any combat.

Actualy 2-3 min of intense maneuvering is enough in combat. Either your target or you won't last that long. This aint a capital ship buster i presume, couse that takes longer and needs a reloadable rocket stream, or a gattling cube. This could be more survival friendly with at least one ion in each direction for "O sh*t!" moments, it has a generator so you could mine ice to refuel if it came to that. Hydrogen ships are more like interceptors than interdictors, the fight comes to them near their fuel reserves. The design is realy sleek, especialy for hydrogen, i like it.

It can reach orbit just fine; just manage the thruster overrides.

Using a script to fully optimize the thrust does make it much easier.

I tested with my launch script and ended with 63% hydrogen available.

This ship can't break atmo even with the tanks full. I'd suggest adding Blarghs ascent script which might help.

I just start putting the big blocks like large thrusters, tanks etc. next to each other
and then add the smaller stuff around it.
It usually takes me around 3-5 failed attempts until im happy with a prototype.
So it's not easy for me either ;)
And then I just improve it step by step until it looks like this.

What you do when if you start build ship?

I really like the sleek looks of the ship, especially the wings. You have a hand for small craft design!

yeh fair enough that would make scence then, there are not many universal ships so to speak of in space engineers what are decent i perosnally go for ( 1-2 o2 gens ) very few hydrogen thrusters and a hybrid engine set up ions / atmos / hydrogen. just shop around at other universal craft aragath had alot of good ideas on how to acheive it i perosnally learned from his desings.

I know, it's stupid for survival, the fuel will only last 2-3 minutes.
I made this one mostly for some fighting in creative and just wanted it
to be as powerful as possible. ;)
I guess i should balance the next ones a bit better XD

just do me a favour please make 2 charts one with all your thruster's active ( 3 axis flight time ).
and another chart with some hydrogen thrusters disbaled ( save fuel time ) 3 axis flight time ).

its really important to have a fuel saving mode where it will disbale a set amount of thrusters to increase flight time. either way if you can get that info for me i would love it : ).
